My 100-Approach Journey And What I've Learned
Sup playas,

I've completed my 100 approaches and I've gotta say it's amazing how far I've come from the beginning. I encourage anyone who's reading this contemplating whether or not to do this, to DO IT. This post will be long. Get ready.

10/21:

I've decided to restart my approach challenge after going out on the weekend with local PUA seeing night game is not worth it in my opinion. This will help me get out of society's way of what is suppose to be. I can become more charming and sociable with women as icing on top. The challenge is to do 100-approaches within a month. It's definitely doable.

I felt great this morning and took off for the campus to do some approaches. I parked my car with the meter running for 3-hours. Time for some hunt. I had several opportunities to approach but I chickened out by thinking too much about what's going to happen afterwards and the spotlight effect where other people are hearing what we are talking about. Those two hurdles blocked me from approaching a single girl. On the bright side, I did make a lot of eye contact with cute and gorgeous girls while I was walking.

At night I smoke and had an epiphany. I felt going up to girls and telling them they are cute especially with the Yad-stop is not normal especially on campus. It's going to scare the cat. A better approach is to stop the girl and ask an innocent question like where is this place or a suggestion. I saw a video where it was talking about alpha males in chimp. They suggested women love to nurture so it's in their DNA to help poor lost lamb like me. Little do they know I'm a wolf in disguise. But I think they will figure it out sooner rather than later because the sub communication suggests that I'm hitting on them. Just the verbal is saying something different, which I think is what girls want anyway. The people around us hear one thing while we have a completely different conversation. And that turns them on.

This is what I'm planning to do tomorrow at the mall. I also thought of another awesome tactic for setting up the first date.

So I will text the girl suggest we should shoot some rounds and get some drinks. (Ambiguity)

It could either mean we shoot/drive some golf balls or shoot a gun. She will ask what it means. I then challenge her asking if she is a good girl (golf) or a bad girl (gun). Kind of testing the water so I can be prepared for what's to come.

10/22:

I went out this morning feeling great. I drove the a mall that is pretty empty. There were several opportunities for me to approach but I chickened out. Finally after walking around twice, I saw a cute young chick working outside of a glamour shot store.

Approach #1:

I went and asked her a question about what I should get for my niece for her 10th birthday. I was sweating and my words were not coming out smoothly either. But she was nice and she kept stroking her hair which could mean she is either nervous too or she was attracted to me. She asked what she liked. I told her she just plays on her iPhone and studies. Her parents and my parents just buy her clothes so I don't want to get her that. She suggested buying a DS. I act dumb and asked what it was. She explained it was a portable video game. So I said so it's a portable Wii. She suggested some other stuff and told me she is a video game geek. (I should tease her about that) Then I thanked her for her suggestions and left.

Remarks: I was nervous because I haven't done it in a while and she was cute but she was working so I don't know how much that plays out. I should've went for the number and suggest we play some video games together.

Approach #2:

I went a B&N and saw a cute blonde reading a book by the feature stand as I walked in. I observed her while she was reading and she was reading a book about Lincoln. I hesitated and walked around different aisles deciding to approach. My mind was into overdrive thinking about what to open with even though I knew what I should say. A few minutes later she went away and a moment later she actually walked past me in the aisle as she headed out the door. I was a step too late to chase her down. She got into her car when I went out the door. FUCK! (What a great missed opportunity)

I made up for it when I went to another B&N. I saw a blonde sitting down at the stairs reading a book. I went up stairs and started to read a book that was interesting. After 20 minutes, I went down again and she was still there. I opened her with “You seem to be enjoying yourself.” It took her a while to make eye contact with me. “Is that a good book?” “Yes” She said. “What is it?” She shows me but she was not engaged at all from her body language. I asked if it was fiction and told her the only fiction book I read was The Ender's Game and it's coming out as a movie. Then I told her I was reading a book by a concentration survivor upstairs, explaining to her what it was about. But she was not interested at all. So I told her to have a nice day and left.

Remarks: There was nothing I could have done because some girls just aren't interested. I was proud of myself when I made up for the missed opportunity previously. I also saw another girl walking outside of B&N and we made eye contact and I think she smiled too. I was deciding how and if I should approach her. I started to follow her walking but she walked too fast. I even ran for a bit before she went into a restaurant.

Approach #3:

I was walking towards my car and I saw a cute mom with a stroller. She walked to her car to put something. I thought she was going home but she then walked back towards me. She had a cute smile on. I said “You look like you had left your baby and you are going back for her….. or something.” She said “Ooh” and laughed. But she kept walking and I didn't stop either.

Remarks: I was thinking if I should even approach moms with kids or toddlers because the moral issue.

Approach #4:

I ate lunch at home and was pumped to go out again. I went to another mall outdoor. This time it was much faster to open. I opened a girl walking towards me and asked her what I should get my niece for her b-day. She gave me her suggestions and we talked for a bit and I thanked her.

Remarks: I didn't really transition that to anywhere. After I open with it I need to get more personal like asking what she's doing, how her shopping is going.

Approach #5:

I walked inside of Dillards and went to the 2nd floor. I saw good looking blonde coming off the escalator. She works there at the counter. I saw her and she saw me. I went to the left side but thinking I past the moment. Then I was fuck it. I go back and do it. So I did. I went up to her and asked what I should get for my niece for her b-day. She was actually puzzled because she couldn't think of anything. We talked a bit and I told her I want to be the cool uncle that got her something cool that's memorable. She suggested a perfume and asked me if I want to check it out. I thought why not and went downstairs with her. She showed me two and I told her isn't perfume bought for the guys but she's still too young to be attracting dudes. She agreed and said it is tough to find a gift. She said her niece 10th b-day is coming up too and she doesn't know what to get her neither. I said it's better to be an uncle or aunt then to be dad or mom because uncle can be cool without the responsibility. I don't think she agreed from her body language but she didn't say anything. She suggested to have a pair of Uggs that's $150.(Lol) I told her they even got Uggs for men now and Tom Brady is doing commercials for them. I commented I like how she went for $50 gift to a $150 gift. She said it will make it memorable for my niece. We checked out some adult version of the Uggs. I asked her if she has any pair and she said she didn't. I teased her about telling me to get a pair and you don't even own one. Then the conversation died down and I thanked her and left.

Remarks: I thought the vibe was friendly and not flirty at all. She was just trying to help. I should have teased her more to get her out of her rhythms a bit.

Approach #6:

I was walking back to my car and I saw a girl dressed all black with a pretty cool black bag with red stripes on it. I commented to her as she was texting. “I like her bag.” “Thanks” “It really matches your outfit. I think it's the red stripes. "Thank you.” I don't think she even lifted her head from texting.

Remarks: I don't think I was actually committed to the approach as I was just walking by and never really stopped. Maybe that's why she wasn't really committed either.

Day Remarks:

Overall, I was proud of myself for doing this many approaches after my revelation. I got out of my shell and my personality shined even if it was for a bit. There were numerous opportunities that I missed and I wished I could have done those. Live and learn. I noticed after all those approaches, I was really sociable. I went to the gym and joked around with the front desk person. I also talked to this black guy with a cool watch. He was very receptive too. I think I get a high from doing this.

10/23:

Approach #7:

I saw her walking towards me a cute white girl. I said “Hey, excuse me, where is the main building?” She stopped and helped me. Guided me through how to get there. I acted dumb trying to follow her direction. After enough time, I didn't continue and thanked her.

Remarks: I forgot my excuse for going to the main building(lost my id, getting a new one). I should continued the conversation by asking her where she was going or make a comment like she was getting her day started.

Approach #8:

I saw a blonde walking by herself on the narrow sidewalk we were walking. I opened with the same thing. I think she was initially a bit surprised by me opening her. She was confused what the main building is. I told her I lost my id and was trying to get a new one. She told me I need to go to another building and pointed out how I can get there. Then continued her way. I thanked her.

Remarks: I thought she looked better from far away then up close. But she didn't seem like she wanted to continue the conversation.

Approach #9:

I saw another dark blonde girl (a bit older up close) walking with a rolling luggage. I had to intercept her by walking parallel to meet her up. I pretend I was checking my phone and then look up at her at just the right moment. I opened her with the same thing. She told me to go to the building the previous girl told me. She really wanted to help me as she tried to pull up a map of the campus. I commented they should have an app for the campus or maybe they already have. As she was working her phone, I saw a indention on her thumb and ask her about it. She asked where and I touched where it was. She didn't know how it got there. Then I transition into some personal stuff with her. She seemed excited to talk about herself. The vibe was great. She grad student doing opera who's going to perform this weekend too and told me I should come and see her. I told her maybe I will check her out.

Remarks: Perfect opportunity to get her number and didn't go for it. I was kicking myself afterwards for not doing so. I thought she was pretty interested.

Approach #10:

I saw a cute(so I thought) asian girl on her phone texting. I opened her with the same thing. She told me and said that it was pretty far. I commented “So I should take a bus?” She agreed and I asked which one. She said a bus. “But doesn't that just go around campus?” She said yeah. “So I would need to walk regardless”. She laughed. Then I thanked her and departed.

Remarks: She wasn't that cute when I actually saw her face. Don't know if she was interested or not and not really interested to find out.

Approach #11:

I was walking back to my car. I saw a blonde (4-5) looking lost or was trying to find something. That is exactly what I commented to her. She said she was looking for a place to meet her friend. She pointed out the place she was looking for. I said “The UPS?” She said “No the Thai place.” I asked if the food was any good. She said she's never been there but is going to find out. I was going to tell me let me know but I thought how the fuck is she going to let me know.

Remarks: Not really an approach but I just did it because I thought it was appropriate for me to comment. I didn't really stop either. I just kind of turned but kept walking slowly.

Approach #12:

I was almost to my car when I saw a cute blonde walking towards me but she turned left before I had a chance to open her. Damn it I thought. But I continued to follow her in her direction. I wanted to run but my shin hurts like a motherfucker. So I kept following her on the side of the street. Until she crossed the street to my side. Then I was determined to approach as I jogged slow up to her. I didn't do the Yad-stop completely right as I didn't get in front of her. More like to the side of her but she stopped.

Me: “Hey, can I tell you something real quick?”
Her: “Yeah.”
Me: “I was just walking and I saw you cross the street. And I wanted to come and say hi and tell you that you look very nice.”
Her: “Thank you.”(I think she was going to walk away at this point)
Me: “I think it's your walk. It's very feminine.”

Then I commented that she looked like she was getting to her first class. She said she was actually going back for her second. I guess her major (from her outfit - liberal arts) but she was actually engineering. We kept talking for about 2-3 minutes about classes and grades. At the end, she asked for my name and she told me hers. I tried to get her number and she said no but maybe we will see each other around. I told her what the chances we will see each other out of 30,000 people. I said come on but she left.

Remarks: Afterwards, I was very proud of myself for actually doing this approach and sticking it out like a boss. I think I could have slowed down a lot of stuff to improve my non-verbal communication. But during most of the conversation, I was relaxed and wasn't in my head at all, just going with the flow. I could have teased her more.

Approach #13:

I was going home and needed to get something from the grocery store. I went to an asian market. I thought if I see someone cute I'm going to approach her. Turned out there was one. She was a bit old but still cute. I saw her in the frozen aisle but I didn't approach. Later I tried to find out where she was. I saw her finally and I kept walking and turned into an aisle. She followed me to the aisle(lucky). She was still looking at the frozen stuff while I was looking at all the teas. Finally I went near her and asked if she could recommend any ice cream there. She said not really. I commented the ice cream here are weird compare to the traditional grocery store. She agreed but the conversation died from there. I kept looking and examining the ice cream to save face. Then she finally walked past me and said “No ice cream for me today.” I said “Have you seen these? They give these in Japanese restaurant as deserts.” She was half listening while she strolled her cart on to the next aisle.

Remarks: That was my first supermarket approach. I'm glad I did it. Also I saw the ring on her finger. Maybe that's why she wasn't all that interested.

Day Remark: I was proud of myself today for actually doing campus approaches which I couldn't do before. I still have the spot-light anxiety going on. I'm going to conquer that soon. More teasing and more transition into personal questions when approaching is my next step.

10/24:

Approach #14:

Really cute blonde girl walking towards me on the sidewalk. I ask her for direction and she asks what for. I told her for getting a new id. She points out to me. I noticed she had a piercing on her nose and said I liked it. We got in a good conversation about piercing and the vibe was good. We ended it when my phone rang.

Remarks: I thought this approach went well. I should have asked her number but my phone started to ring and I got cockblocked. I noticed her made a facial expression like confused/weird when we said goodbyes.

Approach #15:

Another blonde chick walking towards me. I said “Hey, do you know where the main office is?” She smiles as I open her. She had no idea where it is. I asked if she was a freshman. She said she's a senior. I asked how she never got an id as a senior. She said she never heard of anyone calling it like that. And it just went awkward from there and I thanked her and she walked away.

Remarks: Weirdest approach by far. Nothing I could really do about it but laugh it off.

Approach #16:

I went to the museum because it was free today. I figured I could make some comments about the art. I opened a girl looking at a painting. I tried to open her from the side but she went to sit down. I sat down next to her and describe what I saw from the painting. I don't think she quite understood what I said but we continued talking. I found out she was from Peru and was visiting her friends. I welcomed her to Austin asked her what she'd seen. I stood up and was about to leave and I asked her about Peru and what is Peru known for. She told me and I told her if I was ever in Peru, I would look her up.

Remarks: I thought the vibe is great. There were a few pauses in between but I was never in my head trying to think about what to say. Relaxed definitely so that's awesome. This approach was in a quiet setting too and I was worried about it.

Approach #17:

I commented how the girl in the painting had a creepy look with a scissors too. The girl agreed and commented a bit further. I didn't even look at her in the eye when we talked.

Remarks: I could have tried to took it further and looked her in the eyes.

Approach #18:

I was looking at an armor. A cute blonde girl stood next to me to check it out. I commented “Can you imagine wearing something like that around?” She agreed. “It's like you are training for the Olympics.” She laughed. I said “I guess you gotta do what you gotta do to survive back in the days.” She agreed and said something about deflecting a lance.

Remarks: I didn't look at her at all. Just looking at the armor. But I did see a dude coming up to the display too. Who I just assumed was just the beta-knight trying to mate guarding the chick. Later I see them together so it's probably true.

Approach #19:

I went to the gym to workout a bit before going to boxing. I see a blonde girl with matching outfit for training. She was in front of me but I didn't approach right away. I finally got a chance to make a comment on her outfit. I said “I like how you have a matching outfit.” She said “Thanks I just got it.” I asked her if she planned it that way and she told me how to came to assemble her outfit. I said “And now you have the complete set.” I transitioned to asking what she was training for? She just said “I'm not training for anything just stretching.” Then I just went back to my work out.

Remarks: I didn't know how to continue this after she said that. But overall I'm glad I did an approach at the gym where it is a taboo to do so.

Approach #20:

I went to a grocery store to try to get ready for a “date”. I wanted to get more social and get something while at it to increase my alcohol tolerance. I talked to a guy asking if banana would be good before drinking. He recommended some granola bars. I walked around the store and saw some approachable girls in the cereal aisle. I was browsing through the different brands when a girl bumped into me from walking backwards. (Don't know if it's intentional or not) She apologized. I immediately said “Hey, for bumping into me. Let me ask you something. Which one would you recommend?” She told me her preference. I asked her what she was shopping for. She told me for some cereal. “For tomorrow morning eh?” I said. She said there is too many choices. I said it's all a deception, all the brands are owned by the same company. She said she tried almost all of them. “So you just get a new cereal every 2 weeks?” I asked. She said yes. Then I left with what she recommended.

Remarks: I think I could have asked for her number. She seemed interested enough.

Approach #21:

I was outside the grocery eating my bananas. I approached a young couple picking out pumpkins. I asked the girl how to pick a pumpkin. She told me and we got into a discussion about pumpkins. The vibe was super chilled and the guy didn't say much.

Remarks: I was just bored by myself so I thought I would entertain myself by talking to these people.

Day Remarks: I think I'm getting good at this. The more people I talked to the better I'm able to stay sharp on my feet. There is almost no approach anxiety because I'm not expecting anything from them. I'm also making more direct eye contact with girls I see. Like I keep looking at them even if she's not looking at me to try to challenge her to make eye contact with me. Some girls actually smiled when I look at them. I think it's just the confidence. Oh, also I got laid tonight with a cute latina girl who is down for some play. All I had to do was be relaxed and not fuck up. That was it and I was in the zone too. After we played pool, I just said “Let's get outta here.” She immediately complied. I told her to get in my car and I will drive her back and she complied too. As soon as she went inside my house, I started to manhandle her. I spanked her like I promised. Hard too. By the time we got done, her cheeks are bloody red with palm marks.

10/25:

Approach #22:

I was going around the grocery store stalking for cute chicks. I saw this cute asian girl by herself shopping for stuff. I went to the aisle she was at and started to look at instant noodles. I wanted to get her opinion on them but there were too many people around so I didn't do it. I didn't want to stalk her and follow her to the next aisle where she went. So I just went to the asian sauce aisle and started to look at the sauces. Lucky me, she came by with her shopping cart. She strolled past me but I sensed she wanted me to open her. She was on the far right side and I was in the middle. I wanted to go and ask her about which sauce would be the best to marinate chicken. Then a middle aged white guy actually approached her asking her about sauces I think which I thought was hilarious. I laughed as I kept looking at the sauces. After he left, she strolled past me again but this time I did open her. I asked her what I wanted to ask. She didn't know but I insisted. She finally said depending on what mood she was in. She said she didn't really cook chicken. I said it could be for steak too. She still had no idea. So I teased her saying “I thought you said you were this good cook but you don't even know what sauce to use.” She got defensive and didn't really get the tease. She said she never said anything like that. Then she recommended me the oyster sauce and I asked her what that tasted like. The vibe is ok but felt kind of distant. Maybe because I wasn't facing her directly. Only turning and facing her when I ask her questions. I continued and asked her if she was half chinese. She said no but didn't provide any answer. So I vacuumed and stayed silent. Finally she said she's half vietnamese but didn't provide the other half until I pushed further. Before she left, she asked why is everyone asking me about sauces? Lol.

Remarks: I still have a bit of spotlight effect when I'm still warming up for the day. She kept twirling her hair which I took as a good sign. But her words aren't that flirty or friendly. Looking back I think she was attracted me to on some level. I should face her more after she gave me a good sauce to work with as kind of a reward. Also when she asked why is everyone asking me about sauces, I should've said because he is trying to fuck you. I wonder what reaction she will give. If she asks me and you are not? I know it's on. My reply would be that would depend on the sauce you recommend with a smirk.

Approach #23:

Right after she left, I saw a tiny cute girl holding a bottle of sauce. I think she was looking to put it back after I saw she worked there. I pointed my finger on a random shelf and said it's right there. She went for it and I bust out laughing and said I'm just playing. She was playfully wanted to hit me. I vibe a little and she told me she just started working here 3 weeks ago and recently moved to Austin. Then she had to go and teased her more about reading the aisle sign you know the letters that make up the words. I ran into her again after she was helping some customers. I said “Still looking?” She wanted to hit me again and said “I was helping someone.”

Remarks: This one went super well because I think she was a playful type of girl and plus she thought I was attractive and wanted me to get her number which I should have done. I missed the opportunity to get her number and didn't capitalize on a great vibe. She did hint she was new to Austin. GET THE NUMBER NEXT TIME!

Day Remark: I was a bit lazy today. Maybe because I got laid last night and my balls are out of jizz. I went to the mall in the afternoon but didn't approach anyone. There were a few opportunities. I need to go for the numbers and expect rejections. Hope for the best and expect the worst.

10/26:

Approach #24:

I saw this cute girl working out in the gym. I think she notices me checking her out and I notice her checking me out. I was working out near her but didn't approach. Then I got on the lower ab workout and she was in the machine directly in front of me. I saw she has a tattoo behind her ear so after I finished my set I went in.

ME: “Is that the new trend now for tattoo behind the ear?”
HER: (Smiles) “I got this a long time ago.”
ME: “Oh, so you are the pioneer.”

We kept continue to talk about tattoos. She asks me if I saw what the tattoo was. I took a closer look. It was weed, love and peace. I asked if she had any other tattoos. She showed me her ankle with a few tats. I touched those tats on her feet slowly and seductively too. Then we talked about a piercing. She had she had some and I told her where I got mine. Pointing at the places got my face doing it slowly like my finger was following a trail. I guess her age at 29. She said she's 26 but has kids. That's why I guessed higher. She's said “That's fucked up.” I smirked and knows she loves it. Afterwards I just went back to my work out.

Remarks: I thought this one went really well. The power of observation, timing and vibe were all on my side. I wanted to get her number and ask for a drink. I figured I will see her again when she leaves. While I was doing plank, she walked by me to throwaway trash. She walked downstairs. I chased her down but didn't see her so I went to the locker room to wait for her to walk out. I didn't see her so I went out and saw she was getting into her car with her two little kids. At that point, I didn't want to go and approach her anymore.

Approach #25:

While I was at the mall, I walked around for a bit before I saw this cute exotic looking girl walking in the parking lot. I stopped her and ask about what to get for my niece. She couldn't think of anything so I transitioned into something else. I saw her had a piercing on her nose so I commented on that. I asked “Are you half Persian?” She said no but no follow up after that. Finally I found out she was from Columbia and was her to get her master. I told her the women from Columbia are beautiful. She said thank you. I vibed with her about her major and how she thinks this mall sucks. I asked her about the malls in her country. After about 5-7 minutes, I asked her for her number and told her I was take her out. She gave me her number and I asked her number.

Remarks: I liked this conversation. There is not that much eye contact I can see. Maybe she wasn't that attracted. I texted her about 3hrs later and didn't get a response. I will try to set something up on Monday. I was proud of myself for going for the number and closing it too.

Approach #26:

I saw a cute smoking something cool. I asked her about it. I didn't realize she was on the phone talking to someone. But she said it's cool and kept talking about where she got it. If you can smoke hash oil on it. She was really friendly and so I was.

Remarks: Not really an intentional approach but I thought it was cool and she was just the right girl at the right time.

Day Remarks: I'm starting to have “don't give a fuck attitude”. I look people in the eye automatically until they back down and I look at whoever I want and I make comments to strangers too. I have this really playful vibe going on that teases on people and have a great time in the process.

10/27:

Approach #27:

I just got on campus on Sunday. There is not a lot of people walking. I saw a cute blonde walking out of a building. I ran up to her and stopped her. I didn't get in her way, more like approaching from 45 degree angle.

Me: “Hey, can I tell you something really quick?”
Her: (smiles) “Yes.”
Me: “I was just walking over there and I saw you walking. I just have to say that you look nice.”
Her: “Thank you.”

From there I asked what she was up to. She said she's a math grad student. I asked her what's the hardest problem she had to solve. I kind of answered it for her instead of vacuuming for the answer. Then she said she had to get to somewhere. And she said “Thank you.” I said “No problem.”

Remarks: She seemed all friendly and stuff when I opened her. But afterwards it kind of went downhill. Maybe I should put her more on the spot and qualify her to me.

Approach #28:

I saw a dirty blonde girl in sweatpants with a starbucks in her hand walking towards me. I stopped and asked her where the student union is. She had no idea but told me where the student activity center is. I commented she looked like she just got back from the gym. She said no she is just lazy and hung over. I asked her if she went to a crazy party. She said it was an unintentional getting drunk. We were about to part ways and I saw she had a big tattoo on her back. I told her I liked her tats. She stopped and let me take a look. I asked her what the symbol meant. She tried hard to explain it was some kind of mythology. I teased her and said you are too hung over to be explaining mythology right now.

Remarks: The vibe was very casual. I think that's why indirect works when the vibe is chilled and normal. I could've went for the number but she wasn't my type.

Approach #29:

I was just walking down the street and saw a girl with purple dyed hair. While we were close enough, I gestured with my hairs waving around my head so she would see me. I asked her how did she get the purple hair. She said she had to bleach it twice and color it. I said “Isn't it bad for her hair?” I think she got defensive and tried to explain it to me. I told her the color was like magenta. And she looked like Storm from the X-men. Then we left our separate ways.

Remarks: I didn't transition into anything else like I should but this approach was very natural because I was curious.

Day Remarks: Today approach was very easy for me because I started as soon as I saw someone interesting. Funny thing was when I got on campus, this guy approached me and asked me what building it was and how to get somewhere. Exactly what I had been doing. I didn't do anymore today because my shin was killing me. Walking does take its tolls.

10/28:

Approach #30:

I went to an outlet mall in the morning. There weren't that many people but there are definitely some approaching girls. I saw this mexican looking girl wearing glasses walking around the corner to me. She didn't even look at me while we were closing but I said “Hey, can I ask you something quick?” She smiled and said “Sure.” I asked her about what to get for my niece. She couldn't think of anything. Then after about 30 seconds, I commented with “You look like you bought out the whole store.” She laughs and said she was doing Christmas shopping early. I couldn't think of anything on the spot so I asked her name. “Mercedes” she said. “Like the car.” I said. I asked if there was any special meaning behind it. She said “It meant faith in Spanish” I asked if that was the reason why Mercedes made their name. I thanked her and shook her hand and said “Thanks for nothing.” She laughs.

Remarks: I didn't continue the conversation very well. I should have teased her more. When she said she's doing her Christmas shopping, I should've responded with what did you buy me. Also I should have at least tried to get her number.

Approach #31:

I was walking around about to go. I see this older woman with short hair cut walking on the other side of the mall on the same walkway. I should've intercepted her by getting on her path but I didn't. So I looped around hoping she was just going to walk around too. She did. And I opened her with the niece gift. She said she couldn't think of anything. And said “I'm sorry honey.” Then she walked away.

Remarks: I guess she knew I was approaching her with an excuse. Maybe because she saw me the first time and wonder why I didn't do it then when it was more natural.

Approach #32:

I was on a CC campus checking out some potential. It's a lot smaller than regular campus so I don't know how to go about it. I walked around and went inside a building. I saw this girl walking downstairs and I was trying to think of a way to open her. She had something that was glowing in the dark. So when she walked out she was putting something in her backpack and I went.

Me: “Does that glow in the dark?”
Her: “Oh, I don't know.”
Me: “I saw you walking downstairs and there was a part that was dark and it was glow there.”
Her: (she looks at it and shows it to me)
Me: “It looks like a light from a bicycle. Do you ride a bicycle?”
Her: “Yes but it was stolen.”

Then we talked about her major and when she was going to graduate. She said she was graduating in a year. I told her we should get a shot and celebrate. I asked if she was going to look for a job. She said she wants to look for one before she graduates. I think she tried to ask me something but I kept plowing through. Then she said “That's me.” I see a dude pull up in a car waiting for her. I told her it was nice meeting her.

Remarks: I think elderly opener does work when I find something interesting which then I can transition into something else. I'm debating whether to keep the conversation going or get the number quick.

Approach #33:

I was working out at the gym. I saw a cute blonde chick with a great body working out by herself. I wanted to approach but there was no opportunity plus too many people. As I was walking out the door, I see that girl walking out in front of me. After I exited, I commented to her as she was about to dial someone on the phone.

ME: “It looks like you had a great workout.”
HER: “I did.”
ME: “What did you do today?”
HER: “Biceps and triceps.”
ME: “So just the small muscle groups then.”
HER: “Yeah.”

Remarks: We were talking while we were still walking. Neither one of stopped and we split into separate direction. I could try to stop her but it seems like she's busy and is not interested.

Day Remarks: I felt tried today because I was smoking weed and drinking last night with the FB. Woke up later than usual and showed a few houses. I'm definitely more playful than ever. Even when I'm showing houses I tease and crack jokes with my client. And she loves it and plays along. I guess Game is universal and can apply to everything.

10/29:

Approach #34:

I was at the gym working out. I see a girl that I've seen before at the gym when I was coming in the late morning. As I was doing my set, I heard her grunting. After I finished my set, I went up to her and said “You don't hear many woman grunting while working out.” I don't think she heard me and she grabbed my arm while she asked me to say it again. I did and added “Maybe in tennis.” She was smiling and giddy the whole way. She told me she works with autistic kids. I assumed she was a teacher. She said she works specifically with those kids at home. She had to prepare herself with the kids because they'd be doing MMA shit. We kept chatting about it for a good 3 minutes or so.

Remarks: I thought the vibe was awesome. She dug me right away. She probably knew who I was plus I was chatting with other dudes before. She sound really excited to talk to me.

Approach #35:

I went to a grocery store and saw a really cute girl (thought she was Mexican) strolling her cart around the store getting stuff. For the life of me, I couldn't do it for some reason. I think was expecting a response from her or thinking about how bad it will be. Just my mind projecting necessary shit to me. Finally after a good 5 minutes stalking her, I went in. She was grabbing some baking package and I went up to her and said “You got the wrong one, get this one.” For a second, I thought they were exactly the same. Then she asked “This one, the cookie?” I said “Yes, do you know how to bake?” She said “Yes.” I commented on how she bought on the whole store in her cart and it's going to last her 2 weeks. She said she's got 3 kids (WTF) probably won't last for 2 days. I checked out her cart and teased her about how bad the food are. I asked her if she was a good cook. She said she cooks good food. I asked her what her best dish is. She just says all kinds. I teased her and that's what everyone says but they can't name one dish. I got a bit defensive and she cooks filipino/mexican food. I said commented like tacos mixed with sesame chicken. She said she doesn't know about that. She said her dad was filipino. I ran out of shit to say as I was about to leave, I said I liked her necklace. Then we split.

Remarks: I was proud of myself for finally going in when the duty calls. It was a pretty good convo we had. I think she was semi interested but I wouldn't know unless I got her phone number, which I should have done.

Day Remarks: I still have trouble approaching in supermarket. I tried to have the perfect timing to get in but that never pans out. Most of the time, I was just walking aisle to aisle looking for a girl to approach while holding a box of granola bars. Then I was actually see a girl I like, I don't approach and tried to wait for a good time. I just need to go in and act dumb, which is what I'm going to do. Acting dumb and just play with them because they are cute.

10/30:

Approach #36:

I was in front of Starbucks waiting for my client. I saw a girl parked her car in front of another store, walking towards me. When she got to the door, I said “You can't park there.” She said “There is no sign. Why can't I parked there?” I said “You going to Starbucks and Chipotle people won't like that.” Then we kept going for 2 or 3 more rounds and I finally said “I was playing.”

Remarks: I didn't continue with I think you're cute because it seemed like a lost cause. She wasn't that playful. But I was proud of myself for opening with no hesitation and saying what is on my mind. I'm getting more playful by the day.

Approach #37:

I was at the mall trying to do indirect-direct opening. Basically acting dumb/finding excuse to open girl and tell her she's cute. I saw one sexy brunette walking towards me. I think she just got approached by two dudes at the kiosk for hair shit. She blew right past them. I said “Excuse me, do you know where Macy is?” She didn't even stop, just turned around and gave me the look “Dude, it's right here.” (I was actually coming out of it). I just laughed and kept going.

Remarks: She must had a bad day to start. She had a mean expression on her face. Nothing I can do about that.

Approach #38:

I was at the gym doing my ab work and this fine ass asian chick was working out two seats down. She walked in front of me a couple of times and I've seen her at the gym before but today she wasn't wearing a cap. When I finished my workout, I went up to her and said “Your whole back looks like a master piece.” (Her big ass wing tattoo on her back) She didn't hear what I said. I repeat. Didn't hear again. I repeat again. She said thanks. I asked what is it. She said it's just a wing. I commented that it must of too a while to get it done. She said no it only took 7 hours. That's long as hell and it's multiple times too I said. She said she did it in one sitting because she didn't want to go multiple times. She was put her earbuds back, I asked if she got it here. She said yes.

Remarks: I felt like I was the shit after the approach because I approached a hot ass girl in the gym when there are shit load of dudes around us. Even though she was being a bitch, it didn't matter to me. I felt great just going for it. I'm sure all the guys were watching us but within that 30 seconds, I felt like we were alone and the rest of world fades away. I find that to be true in every time I talk to a girl engaging in a conversation.

Day Remarks: I feel like I'm growing a little every day, breaking my comfort zone one step at a time. There were still a few times in stores where I want to approach but didn't. The excuses were piling on. Some of the women are married but won't be offended if I just flirt with them a little or made their day better.

10/31:

Approach #39:

I went to Chipotle for a late lunch. I saw a cute girl eating by herself when I went to the line. After I got my food, I went up to her and said “You look like you need a lunch buddy. I'll be your lunch buddy.” I sat down. She couldn't process what just happened. I asked her what she was up to today. She told me she has go teach a class. From there I was just vibing to what she was giving me, completely in present mode with no thinking between what I'm saying. Our vibe was matching really well from the beginning. I teased her about her being a flute teacher. She said me what my profession is. I said I already kind of told her. She was trying to think and I was refreshing her memory. I teased her she's like Sherlock Holmes, or better yet, Joan Watson. At one point, when she was speaking, I was just amazed by her eyes. I told her that. I said “Wow, you have beautiful eyes. They look like…. eyes of a killer. Not in a bad way, the good way.” She said thanks but was playfully smiling when I said killer. Overall, we talked a lot of stuff that should be talked about over a day 2. I even asked her what her ideal guy would be. Say she's a programmer and can program anyone to her liking, what would he be? Getting the number was just a formality. I pull out my phone and had her entered her number in there. During the convo, I mentioned something that I had to take her out because she was new in town and didn't know anyone.

Remarks: Best approach so far. I think I was in the zone. No fear, no hesitation, just going for it. The vibe was so key. It didn't matter what we talked about as long as I tease her and playfully guide the conversation somewhere. The pace of the conversation was so natural, it feels like we known each other for years, well maybe 3 months. We talked for about an hour.

Approach #40:

I went to the mall and I saw this cute asian girl with a box of food walking somewhere. I was following behind her. I felt like stalking her. I didn't want to run up to her and doing the Yad-stop so I kept my distance. Finally she got a table outside to sit down and eat her lunch. I didn't go in immediately and I walked around the mall once. After I made my round, I circled back to where she was, I went up to her and said “Excuse me, where I can find Macy's?” She chuckled and pointed right behind her. I said “I know, I thought you were cute and I wanted to meet you.” I sat down and started talking to her. I asked her about her food and she got it. Then I commented she worked here. She said “Yes at H&M.” I told her I thought she would be working in Banana Republic. My vibe was still playful. I asked her what she thinks I should for my niece for her b-day. She couldn't think of anything. She was closing her lunch and getting back to her. (Excuse?) She introduced herself and asked for my name when we were getting up. I walked with her talked about her work. At one point, I stopped to see if she would stop. She did. Then I told her if I was ever in H&M, she's going to be personal consultant.

Remarks: My vibe is killer today. I think she was partly engaged. She wasn't super interested but I think she's at least intrigued. I should've pushed for the number to gauge her interest level.

Approach #41:

I was at a grocery store. I talked to this guy asking him if the grapes were a good deal. It was 22 cents off. It's his first time at this particular grocery store too so he doesn't know. I tasted it and it's sweet, so I grabbed one and was about to check out. I saw this blonde chick at the nuts and granola aisle. I was going through another aisle but I turned around went for hers. I stood behind and beside her. “Is that how you can granola bars?” I asked. She said yes. She actually makes her own granola bars. I asked her how she makes it. She tells me. All the while, I'm still playful and eating my grapes from my bag. I teased her how she's buying up from all the bins. Next time I come around she's going have 10 bags. I didn't transition into anything else. I said “Imma call you up next time I'm making granola.” when I left.

Remarks: She seemed interested. She was smiling and make eye contact with me. Maybe get her number too.

Approach #42:

I was walking around B&N and as I was about to leave. I see a young cute blonde reading a book near the magazine section. We made eye contact. I turned around and went up to her. I said “You look like you are enjoying yourself there.” She turned her book and showed it to me. I asked her what it was about. She tells me. I asked her where she got it. She points it out to me at the last aisle. I slowly walk there and go back and shaking my head. I said “There's only engineering books there.” She walks up with me and we go see where she was talking about. She brought me to the section and I some comments. I told her it looks like you are skipping school. (She had her backpack on) I said no she just graduated and she had be home schooled. (From what I assume high school) I asked her if she's going to college. She said she's thinking about it. I told her no don't do it. We talked about a lot of different stuff. The vibe was super chilled. Then she gets a call from her brother asking her where she was. Then a few seconds later, her brother shows up. (I saw him at the stairs earlier) I commented she was just showing me some animal books. She's laughing. Then they leave and she told me it was nice meeting me.

Remarks: She was definitely interested. Probably need some vitamin D anyways from getting cooed up in the house. Ready to release her unresolved issue with her daddy. The brother had to cockblock at the last second. I should've gotten her number earlier and left. Or get the number in front of her brother and say “let's read together sometime.”

Day Remarks: I was in the zone today. After I was done, I actually played “Niggas in Paris” while driving back. My vibe was on point. Maybe it was from the after effect of smoking weed last night. I passed out on my bed, feeling the niceness from my bed. Then I woke up in the morning with the lights still on and lying half naked with no cover on. Even got a sore throat. But everything was worth it. I love my “Devil May Care” attitude flowing through me. I'm still playful with a “don't give a fuck” attitude to back it up with.

11/01:

Approach #43:

I was at the gym this morning. I saw a cute asian girl was doing squats with impressive perfect form and heavier weights. When she went to the stretching area, I went to approach her. I pointed at her to get her notice me and said “You have a very good form when you are squatting.” She said thanks. I continued “Most people don't do squats properly but they keep adding weights.” She agreed. I asked her what she was working on. She said she doesn't know. I teased her saying “So you just come here and do whatever you feel like?” She said yes. Then the conversation just died. I didn't continue to anything else and just left. Before I left, I saw her doing lunges and said “You are doing it wrong.” while I walked away. She smiled with a face of contempt.

Remarks: She didn't seem like she's interested or maybe she just wasn't use to guys approaching her. Nothing I could have done. Maybe keep teasing her.

Approach #44:

I went on campus. Right after I parked my car I saw an older woman (not student) walking with her to-go lunch. I stopped her and said “Hey, is that from Canes?” No she said. “Oh, did you see crazy line they had outside the place? People were lining up.” I said. She saw it and I asked her what she's having. She told me and a little more convo, we head out separate ways.

Remarks: She wasn't particular attractive but alright. I didn't really want to push the convo further. Also she gave me a “ok, that was random” look when she walked away.

Approach #45:

I was walking around campus and I turned around and saw an attractive blonde looking at me. I continued forward then I turned around and went up to her as she was walking behind me. She was just beginning to call someone. When I was in front of her, she ended the call. “Hey, do you know where the main building is?” I asked. “You mean the tower?” She questioned. “Yeah.” I said. “It's right there.” She said. “Oh… yeah, I know. I thought you were cute and wanted to meet you.” I said. I asked her name and told her mine. I asked her what's up to and she said she was meeting up with a friend for lunch. I asked her what's good around here. She told me a couple of places. That was it.

Remarks: She seemed neutral at best. Not really interested but not rude either. I didn't push further for transition or number because I was afraid. Afraid of rejection and taking her time. I don't know why I had it here. I should've went for the rejection anyways to toughen myself up.

Approach #46:

I was walking inside the student activity center when I turned around and saw a decent asian girl walking behind me. I turned around and asked her “Hey, is Zen any good?” She said yes because she's Japanese. I teased her “So you are biased then.” Then I commented “So Zen is like Panda Express of Chinese food.” She smiled. I asked her what she's eating in her hand. “Taco Cabana” she said. We talked where she came from, what her major is, how long she lived her, and why she picked the city. Then I asked her number but she didn't want to give it. I pushed for it one more time and she still refused. I asked her for her name and I gave her mine when we shook hands. She was shaking when we shook hands.

Remarks: I thought I had a good vibe going but I guess she was too nervous to play it along. Her body language was interested like locking her legs together when standing but I guess she could be nervous too. Later in the convo, she was looking away not listening to me while I was talking. I even looked back to what she was looking at, I thought she was looking at someone she knew but I think she was just trying to tell me to end the convo.

Approach #47:

I was at Quizznos getting some lunch. While I was waiting for my order, the guy called out a number and a cute blonde went for it thinking it was hers. The guy called out a number after her. I commented “Aww, they called a number after you.” “I know” she said. “That's messed up.” I said. An cute asian girl went up to get that one after the guy left. After I got my order, I went up to the asian girl who's studying at eating by herself. I said “You look like a good lunch buddy. Mind if I join you?” She smiled and said “Sure go ahead.” I asked her what she was eating. She told me. I asked her if she was Chinese. She said she's Korean. She started to ask me questions. I told her to guess my age, major, what city I'm from. She's loving it. We had a very great vibe. She's smiling and laughing at pretty much everything I'm saying. She even closed her book after she finished her lunch saying “enough studying.” Finally, she said she had to go for a meeting. I said I had to meet a friend too. I said “Let me grab your number so we can hangout sometimes.” We grab each other's number and I told her “I will text you when you are not so busy.”

Remarks: I thought the approach was great from the beginning. It was a bit of a shock for a girl in the beginning I think to have a guy approaching them. But once that phase is done, the girl becomes very comfortable. Being playful is a huge part of it. Now that I'm reflecting back, I think she was trying to qualify herself to me by agreeing with me with whatever shit I'm saying. At one point I asked her what her favorite wing sauce. She told me one or two which I didn't like. I told her “We are not going to get along.” I told her mine and she did an immediate 180 turn to agree with me.

Day Remarks: Today went very well. I'm very comfortable walking around campus and just being myself. There were a couple of approaches that I should have done but didn't. But overall I'm proud of myself for stepping up to those approaches that I've done with no hesitation. I'm feeling very confident now. I openly make eye contact with attractive girls walking towards me even if they are not even looking at me. I still turn my head to look at them brazenly until they pass me. Most people look away when I make eye contact with them. To think just a few weeks ago, I was exactly like that. I'm amazed by the improvements of “not giving a fuck” attitude has grown on me.

11/02:

Approach #48:

I was at the gym today. There was a decent blonde chick doing some complete workout. I went up and asked her if that was a good workout. We chatted for a little bit about it before she put her earbuds back on.

Remarks: She was friendly enough. I think I could have continued the conversation if I transitioned into something else. Maybe asking what she was training for.

Day Remarks: Not much to report for today. I did go to the mall packed with people. There were a lot of opportunities for me to approach but I was just not feeling it. My mind is projecting the future and not staying in the present moment. There was an approach that I wished I could have counted. I saw a cute blonde (from the back) walking on the sidewalks of the mall, I was following her then I lost her. I saw her again at the parking garage. I told myself fuck it let's do this. I ran up to her and stopped her and said “Hey, I think you dropped something.” Pointing back there. To my surprise, the chick is actually a dude or a tranny. Then he actually went back to look for it. I told him “I'm just fucking with you.” Twice. He didn't hear me the first time. He said “Oh.” And we both left awkward as fuck. It was funny as hell though.

11/03:

Approach #49:

I was at Walmart and I saw a cute blonde chick had 4 trays of frozen food in her hand. I didn't approach her at first. Then I saw her again but this time she was getting instant noodles. I went up to her and said “No, those are bad for you.” She looked at me and agreed. She said she had frozen food before. I told her they are both bad but instant noodles is the worst. I asked her what she's getting it for. She said for lunch for the week. Then silence. I tried to interject by saying back in the days I was eating Maruchan ramen all the time. After that, we basically ended over conversation.

Remarks: I'm still not approaching right away. I think I'm hesitating to open at the right moment but it never comes. Only regrets of not approaching and seeking reaction from the girl. This girl isn't very talkative. Later I found out she was shopping with a guy. I also wasn't making much eye contact with her, which I should initiate more.

Approach #50:

I was at the outlet mall. I see a young girl by herself in a Nike store. She walked out and I tried to chase her but she went to Hot Topic right away. I walked around and she was in front of me. I stopped her and asked “Hey, where is the Disney store?”(right behind her). She pointed behind her. I said “I'm messing with you. I thought you were cute and I wanted to meet you.” She smiles. I asked “What are you shopping for today?” She said she's shopping for a pair of jeans. I said “You gonna get some skinny jeans or flat line(don't ask)?” She just nods her head upon hearing skinny jeans. I asked her what I should get for my niece. She suggested getting her a laser engraved iPhone case. She shows me her phone. I tease her about having Justin Bieber on her case. Then her mom calls her and she said it was nice meeting me.

Remarks: I think she's too young. Maybe 17 or 18. Probably in high school. But she was receptive to my approach. Maybe I could have gotten her number if her mom hadn't called.

Approach #51:

I was at the mall. I see a cute girl eating by herself wearing a uniform of some kind. I walked around the food court deciding if I should approach her. I walked 3 rounds around the food court before saying fuck it let's do this. I walked between the seatings straight to her. When I got to her table, I said “You look like you are really enjoying that pizza. You even folded it.” She just looked at me not really saying anything. I said “You looked cute and I wanted to meet you. Do you mind if I join you real quick?” She nodded and said yes. She does mind. Didn't want me to sit down. I said “aww, really?” I asked her if the cinema here is good and how big it is.(she works there) She told me and said “thanks” and left.

Remarks: I think the hesitation killed me and tacked on the nervous vibe I was projecting. I need to approach right away to not feel the nervousness. Maybe she noticed me walking around there and knew something wasn't right.

Day Remarks: I'm feeling approach anxiety part of the time. I feel like I need to approach when I first see an opportunity to do so regardless of what the situation is like. This will help me stay present and think on my feet. Also, I regret not approaching than actually bomb an approach. It feels after an approach regardless if it went well or not. I think that's what I really need to chase instead of chasing for women's reaction to my approach.

11/04:

Approach #52:

I was at Walmart taking my lunch break. I walked around and saw a cute asian chick with her cart in the frozen food aisle. I went up to her as she was looking at some stuff. I said “you should get this - Nacho cheese tacos. It's really good.” She just did a nervous chuckle and said nothing. I opened the fridge, took it out and looked at it. Didn't know if I want to engage her further but went for it. “What are you shopping for?” I asked. She said “For dinner.” I looked at her cart and commented “These are all unhealthy, what you got there: instant noodles, canned foods…” She wasn't very receptive at all. She said “Yeah, I'm just making dinner.” I just left it at that and left.

Remarks: I actually saw her before in another aisle but didn't approach. Maybe it would've been better if I approached her when I first saw her. I wanted to approach this cute latina but my balls failed me. I lost her but found her after my second approach but she was literally next to this asian chick. I regret not approaching her. Who gives a shit what that girl is thinking if I approached. Later when I had to go, she saw me going without anything. Haha.

Approach #53:

I was walking around and I saw this cute brunette looking at some facial stuff in the aisle. I past her once but decided to go back and approach her. I went up to her and said “Get that one.” She was startled while she took off her earbuds. I told her “I scared the shit out of you.” She agreed. I asked her what she's listening to. She said “Drake.” “The new album or the old?” I asked. She thought about it. “The older one.” I asked her what she was shopping for. She was getting some facial cream. We vibes a bit. She said she has an obsession with facial creams. I teased her saying she probably has a closet full of them instead of how some girls have shoes. I framed a line one the counter rack for the amount she has. She laughed and said she doesn't have that much. After a bit, I said “Well, you seem cool. Let me grab your number and we can hangout sometime.” She smiles and said “Sorry, I just got married.” She showed me her ring and said she just got back from her honeymoon in Dubai. I asked her how that was. She got really animated and told me about it. We kept talking for a while and I just said “Those are the memories you want to treasure.”

Remarks: I think this girl was receptive and would be down if she wasn't married. I'm glad I went for the number because I'm not usually a closer. I need to keep closing regardless of the situation.

Day Remarks: I was proud of myself for doing the 2 approaches within the limited time I had. After work I went to more grocery stores but didn't find any girls to approach or I chickened out. I'm still hesitating when it comes down to approach right then and there. I need to work on this.

11/05:

Approach #54:

I was walking around campus looking for girls to approach. I was having a hard time starting. I think I was thinking too much and not focusing on the long term goal and seeking for a reaction instead of doing it for self-amusement. Then I saw a girl looking at some plant on the sidewalk. I didn't really want to approach because she wasn't that particularly attractive but I saw her drawing when I past by her. I back stepped a few steps. I asked her “What is that?” She smiles and said “Horned beatles.” “I didn't know beatles could have spikes.” I exclaimed. “Yeah, they are pretty cool.” She answered. “Could they shoot those spikes?” I asked. She said “No, but that would be cool.” Then I asked her about her major. She said art. I thought biology because she was looking at the plant. I asked her what she draws. Then I ended the conversation.

Remarks: The vibe was good but it was just friendly because I was just curious plus I wasn't that attracted to her and she has a ring. I think if the convo went any longer it would turn weird because my intentions wasn't clear. Something I learned is “don't hide the banana” with direct-indirect.

Day Remarks: I was having a hard time approaching today. There was so many opportunities it's not even funny. I felt like I was starting from day one over again where I couldn't approach. I was thinking too much and expecting good reaction from the girls. My goal for now is just to approach whenever possible with no expectation in mind. If I approach I win. This will help me build a habit to approach. Also after the approach, I will ask for the number regardless if she seems interested or not. I will come from a screening mentality with an abundance mindset.

11/06:

I didn't do any approaches today. Mainly because I didn't have any time. I was staring a side hustle and needed to meet someone and that took longer than expected. By the time I was done, I had to go to work. During lunch time, I went to Walmart to see if there was any approachable girls but I didn't see any. Actually there was a decent white girl that looked pretty trashy but I didn't do it. Maybe because today the weather got cold and less people were coming out at night.

Day Remarks: I'm reflecting what's blocking me and I think I'm still get approach anxiety where I would look at a girl and not proactively finding a way to approach her. Sometimes I regret not approaching and sometimes I don't care. But I need to look at the long term benefit of doing this. I have to be outcome independent which comes with an abundance mentality and keep a playful attitude because the world is already so fucked up, might as well have fun with it.

11/07:

Approach #55:

I was walking near the main building and I see a cute girl walking towards me. She had her earbuds on. I said “Hey, do you know where the main building is?” as I'm smiling. She smiles, “The main building? You mean the clock tower (right in front of us)?” “Yeah, I'm just fucking with you. I thought you were cute and I wanted to stop you and say hi.” I introduce myself and she did too. I asked her what s

RE: My 100-Approach Journey And What I've Learned
I guess my post is too long, got cut off.

Approach #55:

I was walking near the main building and I see a cute girl walking towards me. She had her earbuds on. I said “Hey, do you know where the main building is?” as I'm smiling. She smiles, “The main building? You mean the clock tower (right in front of us)?” “Yeah, I'm just fucking with you. I thought you were cute and I wanted to stop you and say hi.” I introduce myself and she did too. I asked her what she's up to. She said she's gotta write an essay. I asked what she's writing about. She told me. We talked for a bit. She said she has to leave. I keep her there for a bit longer. She said she has to go again. I asked for her number. She has that “I don't want to give my number” face and said she has a bf. I said “No, you don't.” She said “I do. And you stopped me to tell me I'm cute.” I told her it was nice meeting you.

Remarks: I think she knew what the deal was before I opened her. A little more info - my neighbor invited me to his plea and took a few shots and took a few puffs from his vape before I went to campus. So I was a bit high and tipsy with a slightly red face and a goofy, without a care in the world, smile on my face. That's why she's so friendly about it. I also really didn't give a shit saying whatever is on my mind.

Approach #56:

I was just slowly strolling through the campus when I see a middle eastern chick in front of me. I stopped her and asked “Hey, is that the UGL?” She said “No, it's the FAC.” “Isn't it the UGL also?” I asked. She said “I don't know. I'm sorry.” And she walked away.

Remarks: I didn't even try to transition to another topic. I could have told her I was just hitting on her. Plus I didn't really stop her in her tracks so she was steadily walking away while we had that short exchange.

Approach #57:

I just finished eating at Canes and was about to head to work. I see a cute brunette walking in the parking lot going inside. As we get closer, I see she's wearing the Canes T-shirt so I said “Hey, you are late.” She laughs and said “Not yet.” That was it. We both kept walking and never really stopped.

Remarks: I should've continued it and stopped her to talk with her. I guess I was feeling a bit tired and was ready to give up and go. But that's just an excuse for being a pussy.

Day Remarks: At first I actually cared about my appearance because my face was a bit red so it'd seem like I was drunk. But then when I got on campus, I didn't really care. I was really playful like a child. There was a ministry group giving out cupcakes. So I said to myself “Why not?” then went and got one. I kind of flirted with the whole group, acting dumb, saying that this was their good deed for the day. Then right after, 2 cute girls with a video camera trying to interview people for their class. They asked me. I asked them if it will be incriminating questions. They asked me a bunch of questions and I was just being playful and stating my opinions. I teased them occasionally and they laugh and giggle. I think by the end they knew they couldn't really take me seriously and it was a probably a wasted interview. They tried to get other people so I take my cute and walked away. Another one right after, a group trying to save kids with two cute girls passing out flyers. I was really enjoying my cupcake as I was walking. One of the girl saw me and started laughing as she saw me making love to my cupcake. They both asked me if I wanted to help save kids. I told them “Who wouldn't want to save kids?” They laughed and agreed. I told them “It was a trick question.” They laughed. Then nothing. I wasn't approaching at all even though I had so many opportunities. I don't know why the shift happened but I wasn't taking action. I need to pull the trigger so to speak and decide I should do it. If I decide I will approach.

Approach #58:

I was meeting my friend at Panera Bread for lunch . After I got out of my car, I see a cute girl walking across the parking lot. I hesitate for a bit but fuck it, I went for it. I ran up to her from the side and said “Excuse me, I think you dropped something (pointing).” She was about to walk back and look. I said “I'm just fucking with you. I thought you were cute and I wanted to meet you.” She smiles. We introduce ourselves. I asked her what she was up to. She said she's going to Whole Foods to get some food. I said “There's nothing good there. Panera Bread has better food.” She agreed but she always eats there. I asked her what's good there because I rarely go. She recommended mac n cheese and the cookies. I teased her about giving me the most unhealthy food out of a healthy place. I see she's wearing a Sprint shirt. I told her “We're not going to get along. Spring always drop calls.” She had the new phone watch. I asked her about it and teased her about being weird and cool talking to someone without a headset. I told her “Let me grab your number and we'll hangout sometimes.” I pull out my phone. She didn't object but when I was about to enter her number, she said “Actually, I can't. I have a bf.” I said “Well, we should all hangout.” with an undertone. I told her it was nice meeting her.

Remarks: I thought the overall vibe was great, a lot of playful teasing. Maybe I should go for more sexual. I'm glad I went for the approach and went for the number. She seemed very receptive. I don't know why she pulled out at the last second.

Approach #59:

I was walking around this other campus near my work. I was just checking out the campus being my first time. I see a cute blonde walking with a camera. I stopped her with “Hey, do you know where the main building is?” She told me but I made her feel unsure and I teased her about it saying she's going to get me lost. I asked if she was a photography student. She said “No, I just like taking pictures.” I asked if she's been taking pictures around campus. She answers and I tell her squirrels. We talked about squirrels for a bit then she said “Good luck.”

Remarks: She was friendly and there was a flirty vibe but I didn't transition it to anywhere. I should have continued to ask about her like major, year, etc. Also when she said good luck to me I should have took the bait and said “Maybe I should get your name and phone number. You know for insurance purpose and what not, just in case I get lost, you will be responsible.”

Approach #60:

I see a cute asian girl walking towards me. I stopped her and asked where the main building was. She points right behind me. I told her I was just playing I thought she was cute. We introduce ourselves. From her name, I guessed she was Korean but was wrong. For a few guesses, she told me she was Chinese. Then she tried to guess me. We vibes for a good 5 minutes or so and we talked about how she got here, her major, where she was from, etc. We had a very natural and smooth convo. In the end, I told her we should grab a drink and got her number. After I got the number, I teased her about not being old enough to drink. She said she was. I guessed her age to be 24. She was a bit playfully mad and said she's 21. I asked her when she turned 21 and if she did anything crazy. She said she didn't do anything, not even go drinking and she just stayed home with her bf. I was thinking “wtf?” Then I told her I will text her soon.

Remarks: I thought this one went very well. Maybe because we were both asians. The bf thing kind of threw me off though but I just ignore it. I felt good after doing the approach.

Approach #61:

Right after the previous approach, I see a sexy latina walking away from me. I thought about it for a second and then went off to it. I ran up to her from the side and touch her on the forearm and said “Hey, I think you dropped something back there.” She looked and was about to go. I told her I was fucking with her and thought she was cute. We introduce ourselves. I asked her what she was up to. She said she had to go to the main building to change her classes. I asked her what her major is. She said biology. I told her I would've guessed in communication. She said she wants to be a doctor. I asked if she wanted to be a doctor that saves lives or a plastic surgeon. She said she wants to be a pediatrician. We talked for about 2 minutes or so. Then I asked for her number to grab a coffee. She was receptive and gave it.

Remarks: I thought the approach was done well but I didn't think she was going to give me her number based on the vibe. She wasn't that playful or anything just answering the questions at face value. But she gave it. Maybe she was just trying to get rid of me or maybe she finds me cute for trying this shit on her.

Day Remarks: I'm getting better at this everyday. I find that consistency is really important when it comes to doing this. It's sort of like going to the gym. I just have to trust the process and let time and experience help me to mold to the ideal self I want to be. I've become a happier individual too as a result of doing this. Sometimes I do feel like I really don't give a fuck about what anyone thinks. I need to capture that attitude and let it become me.

Approach #62:

I was at the mall and I just walked out of Macy's. I was going to my left and I see and a cute girl walking on the right. I changed my direction and started walking towards her. I stopped and said “Hey, do you know where Macy's is?” She was smiling when I said hey. She had a wtf face afterwards. I told her I was just playing and thought she was cute. It didn't really go anywhere after. I asked her what she's up to. She said she's meeting up with her bf. I said “Aww, that sucks.”

Remarks: I remember her facial expression changed from before to after. It is hilarious. There's nothing I could do about that. I'm proud of myself for going with my gut instinct to tackle that gazelle.

Approach #63:

I was sitting down a table. There was a cute girl that sat down on a bench 20 feet in front of me. I wanted to approach her but didn't do it because I was a pussy. Well, maybe half pussy because she turned out to be my next approach. So during that time, a cute asian girl with skirt walked past my table. I know she saw me checking her out. I got up from my table and started to chase after her. It took me a series of walking and running to catch up to her. I opened her with “Hey, I think you dropped something back there.” She said “Really?” I think she knows what I'm up to from her tone. I said “Yeah.” We held our silence for a bit. She broke it first and told her “I was fucking with you. You should see your face.” I asked her what she's up to. She said she's just shopping around. I told her “Tesla.” She said “Yeah, that would be cool.” We got to talking about cars and asked her about her dream car. She said she didn't know. I pushed further. She finally said “Cadillac CTS.” “The one with the big ass?” I asked. “No” She said. I asked her for number and she gave it to me.

Remarks: During the chase, I still had moments where I was thinking about what others thought of me but as soon as I set my vision on the girl, I had tunnel vision of just blocking everything else out. The convo was laced in with sprinkles of teases which was great.

Approach #64:

After I finished the last approach, I went back to my table and wanted to go up to that cute chick on the bench. I walking towards her when I chickened out at the last minute so I walked around to the other side. I said to myself “Dude, you gotta approach man.” On the other side, I think I saw her looking at me. So I made a full circle to go back to her. This time I went straight up to her from the side. Walking slowly and calmly to her. I stopped next to her. She looks up and I said “Hey, how you doing?” She said “Fine.” I said “Can I tell you something?” She said “Yeah.” I was just walking and I saw you but I didn't' know if you were cute or not, then I was on the other side and thought oh she is cute so I made a big u-turn.“ She was smiling. I tease her about her iPhone case. It looks like a mouse or a hamster. I asked her if that's the new tread and if she's helping to start it. I asked her what she's up to. She said she's on her break. We talked for a bit then I asked her for her number. She said she has a bf. I told her it was nice meeting her.

Remarks: I felt great after doing this approach because it was one of those where approaching is better than regretting kind of thing. Even though it didn't go anywhere I was still being playful and screening for playful girls is important.

Day Remarks: I'm getting a lot more talkative now than ever before. I enjoy going out by myself and talking people knowing that they probably won't even remember me. It's like I'm anonymous because everyone is so self conscious about themselves, too busy thinking about themselves, they don't really give a shit about anyone else. I was at a grocery store getting some bread. I talked to this middle aged woman sampling wines. I was just fucking around with her, acting dumb and kind of flirted with her but she wasn't feeling it so I told her to have a good night. While I was picking some rolls, I see this tall cute blonde looking at some pies. I told her "No, don't get that one.” She put it down and went for another one. She was with a buff black dude shopping together. As I was about to check out, I made a turn on the corner and my arm brushed a package and it fell. There was a middle aged asian lady in front of me. I said “Look what you did.” She yelled “You did it.” I said “You did.” I'm grinning like a mofo.

Approach #65:

I was at the mall but there were too many jailbaits there and not many single girls. I went to B&N near the corner. Didn't any cute girls but I did see a cute blonde working there in the music section. I didn't approach the moment I saw her and when I was ready her coworker started to talk to her so I waited. After a few minutes, she was by herself and I went for it. “Hey, can you help me with something?” I asked. “Sure.” She said. “Are you good?” I asked. She smiles and said “Yes, I'm good I think.” “I'm looking for a book called 'From Pieces to Weights'.” I said. She checked the computer. I told her I was timing her and started to count aloud. She said there were out and so are the other stores. I told her she wasn't good at her job and that she should get fired. I expected to teleport the book from their main store. She plays along and agreed. Then I asked her for another book recommendation. She tells me a book by a Japanese author that's 1984 meets Alice in Wonderland. She explained to me what it was and paraphrased it as “basically a mindfuck”. She excitedly agreed. Then we got into talking about that author and other books he wrote. She read a bunch of his work. I told her “Omg, you are such a dork.” She smiles and agreed. After a few minutes of talking, I said “You seem interesting, let me grab your number and we'll grab a coffee.” She said she can't she has a bf. I said “Oh, you are already telling me all of your problems and I just met you.” She said “Yeah, I have a lot of issue.” Then we somehow got into a convo about vending machines printing books. I commented that they have cupcake vending machines so the next logical step would be to have a book vending machine. I told her it was nice meeting her.

Remarks: The convo was very flirty with a great vibe. I think she definitely enjoyed it even if she's attached. A couple of teases were thrown in mixed with a great topic.

Approach #66:

I was at Walmart after dinner. Right after I walked in, I see a cute blonde in sweatpants walking towards the checkout. I turned around and started to follow her. I kept walking past her while she hasn't got into the checkout line yet. Then I turned around to go back to where she was. She was at the self checkout line. I grab the closest thing to the line - a can of beans and walked up to the side of her a bit in front. I turned around and said “Hey, can I cut in front of you? I only got this.” She said “Yeah, sure you only got that.” “I'm just playing. I thought you were cute and wanted to talk to you.” I said. “Oh” she replied and was going up to the empty station. I asked “Why are you buying so many ziplock bags?” She answered “Because we ran out of them.” I smiled and put the beans back.

Remarks: I was proud of myself for doing that approach because I've never done something like that. I thought it was fun for myself. When she said the last line, I should've counter with “Oh cuz I thought you were a drug dealer.”

Approach #67:

I was at another grocery store buying something. I grabbed it and walked around the store. I see a cute skinny girl in the instant noodle section. I walked straight to her with no hesitation. When I got next to her, I grab whatever next to me. “You should try this, teriyaki garlic chicken. It's good.” She grabbed it and took a look. I told her instant noodles are bad for her. She said she needed to lose weight. I'm thinking wtf. I told her she looked fine and told her to do a spin for me turning her front to me. She did and I said “Yeah, you totally need to lose weight.” She said she wanted to lose another 15lbs. I asked her if she had any plans to make it happen. She said dieting. I told her there was a shit load of sodium in those instant noodles but she said they have less calories. It didn't go anywhere after that. She said “Thank you.” I replied “Oh, you are very welcome.”

Remarks: I thought she was interested from her body language and complying to what I asked her to do. Maybe I should have pushed it more. She sounded like she was high though. I kind of matched her tonality.

Day Remarks: I feel like I'm gradually growing in terms of conversation ability as well as the capacity to do riskier approaches. I'm more in touch with my male sexuality and I think it's showing to the girls. There are still times when I hesitate with the approach. Like when I was at the grocery store. I just walked in and I see a cute girl walking in front of me, she stops at her cart to drop off some stuff. I walked past her and I saw she had a bunch of hand towel rolls in her cart. I didn't say anything but just kept going. I think she saw me. I should have told her “There is one per person limit for these.” and go from there. But at least I'm proactively going up to near the girl.

11/11:

Approach #68:

I was with my friend at Pei Wei eating lunch. Afterwards we went to target for him to buy something and to see me in action. I see a sexy latina with her daughter. I hesitated to approach but went for it eventually. I grabbed a box of cheesy hash browns and went up to her. I asked her if she knows how to make it. She said no she never had hash browns before. I asked her what's shopping for. Then I commented what was in her cart (a bunch of fruits), “You are eating healthy.” I said. “Yes, very healthy.” She replied. She said she's getting some cereal. I asked if there's any warm cereal. She smiled and said “no, it would be nasty.” I thanked her for nothing.

Remarks: I saw the wedding ring after I talked to her and her daughter kept staring at me. haha. I knew it wouldn't go anywhere especially with her kid there. But I'm glad I went for it and with quick thinking about grabbing a prop.

Approach #69:

I was at Walmart on the way back. I saw a tall cute blonde at an aisle. I went up right next to her and grabbed the closest thing: a box of goldfish mac n cheese and told her she needs to get this. She laughs and said she's got what she wanted. I made a comment on what was in her cart: ornaments and a tiny Xmas tree. I teased her on how she's getting started so early and how tiny the tree is. She was smiling and pushing her cart away.

Remarks: I thought the vibe was good and playful. Maybe I should've pushed it for more. There were other people in the aisle but I wasn't seeing them in my vision which is a big leap for me to block out other people.

Approach #70:

I was walking around at the mall. I see a cute girl with a pink backpack walking perpendicular to me. I stopped to check my phone and looked up at the right moment where we made eye contact. Then I waited for a bit before I ran up to her from behind. I touched her on her arm while saying “Hey, I think you dropped something back there.” She had this pissed off look for a split second and kept walking. She stopped to check her backpack after we were 15 feet apart. I didn't want to walk to her further. I told her I was fucking with her and she kept walking. I asked where she was going. She said to meet her family.

Remarks: She must've had a bad day. I was being playful but she didn't want to play. There's nothing I could've done.

Approach #71:

After the previous approach, I turned back to where I was. I see a cute dolled up latina walking towards me. I tried to hide the smile on my face of what I'm about to do. What she got closer, I had a surprised face and yelled “Hey, watch out!” while pointing to the ground near her. She didn't even budge but she did smile and said “I don't fall for that anymore.” I laughed as we past each other. I turned back and said “You are good.” She laughs out loud.

Remarks: That was so fun. I always wanted to try that and I'm glad I did. I had fun doing it and so did she. Completely outcome independent.

Day Remarks: Most these approaches I'm doing, I actually had fun doing it. I'm definitely way more social than ever before. I went to the gun range at night and there was a long wait so I just checked out the switchblades they had. There was a kid checking out too. I just started talking to me about which one he wanted to get it. Then his mom and friend came to get him because they probably thought I was a predator or something. I also fuck around with people working at their job because I know how boring that must be. Some people play along while other don't. But who cares, just brightening up people's day.

11/12:

Approach #72:

I was at the gym working out. I see a cute blonde working out. I didn't want to blatantly go up to her and approach so I waited. Finally I see her to go the water fountain and I went for it. She had her earbuds on too and was pouring water into the fountain. I went to the one next to her. I said “Hey, you can't pour that there.” She looked at me and said “What? I can't pour water into it?” I said “Yeah, you might some other stuff in your cup.” She didn't say anything and turned back to what she was doing. I just said “I'm just playing.” And left.

Remarks: I thought she was interested in me because I see her looking at me sometimes. Maybe because I'm looking at her as well. I could've followed up with what are you training for.

Approach #73:

I was at the food court looking for a restroom. I saw a cute asian girl sitting in the corner by herself on her laptop. I went to the restroom, came back and went up to her. I walked up to her slowly, she looks up to see me. I said “Hey, how you doing?” It took a few seconds to reply and she said “Fine.” I think she was shocked that I approached or she was trying to figure out if she knew me. I asked her why she was sitting in the corner by herself. She said she was waiting for a friend. I told her she was cute that's why I had to meet her. I think she was relieved afterwards. I commented on her hoodie. It looked like… She answered it for me ironman suit. I asked where she got it. “Walmart”, she said. We kept talking for about a minute or two. She was warming up to me but I ejected and told her I had to go to make a delivery.

Remarks: I'm glad I approached. There was a very awkward moment in the beginning where she didn't know what my intentions were. But afterwards, it was very natural and warm. It's about sailing through those awkward moments and build comfort with the girl.

Approach #74:

I noticed a cute latina walking slowly in the same direction I was. I purposely walked to cross path with her. When I was in front/side of her, I asked her “Hey, is that the student activity center?” She told me and asked me if I was going there. I told her I had to deliver something to someone. She said she will walk with me. We talked along the way about her major and how young she was. In the midway, she asked about me. I asked her if she can keep a secret. I told her I wasn't a student here. And I asked if she wanted to see something cool. I went to the nearest bench and opened my backpack. There was a bouquet of flower in it. I said some lucky girl is going to get this. She was curious and asked me about it. I replied with just vague answers. I told her I enjoyed delivering flowers because every time I come here I get to explore the campus and talk to cute girls. She smiles and says it shows. When we got there, I asked her for her number and told her next time I come I will contact her. She gave me her number but I forgot her name after she told it to me. There were some distractions around.

Remarks: I thought the interaction went very well. The vibe was good and also she was curious about me. Maybe I should have qualified her a bit more asking if she was a cool girl.

Approach #75:

I was walking near the stadium and I saw a gorgeous blonde walking out of there. She was wearing earbuds so I just looked at her and pointed to the right of me. She paused earbuds and I asked “Is this the stadium?” “Yes” “How do I get in there?” She told me. I asked her why she was in there. She said she was in the spirits. I pretend to not know what it is and asked her about it. She said they do cheers and use pom-poms. I said “So a cheerleader.” She agreed. I took a good look at her up and down. Then with my right hand going “meh” and said “Yeah, I can see it.” I asked what her major was. I tried to guess before she told me. I guessed communications. She said sports science. “What? You mean like the sports science show on ESPN? Where they show the force and impact on a players knees?” I asked with accompanying foot motion. She agreed. I can tell from her body language that she wanted to leave or was feeling comfortable. So I thanked her and she told me good luck.

Remarks: I think she was the hottest girl I've approached so far. I think I negged her with the cheerleader thing, which was great because I was just fucking with her. I should've continued it because she wasn't leaving or anything. I think my mind was playing tricks on me and preventing me from failure and wanting to feel “successful” before anything “bad” happens.

Approach #76:

I was walking along and I saw a cute-from-afar asian girl. I asked her where the music hall was. She asked me which one I was referring to. I told her I have no idea. She told me all the music halls but marked the main one. I asked her if she was a music student. She said yes. I asked her what instrument she played. She said the bass. “That's cool. Like the guitar bass?” I asked. “No, a chello.” She said. I thanked her and left.

Remarks: She wasn't that attractive close up and she had some fucked up teeth. But I made her smile and that's all it mattered.

Approach #77:

Along the same path I was walking on, I see another cute asian girl. She was walking with her arms crossed. When we got close, I smiled and told her “You can't walk like that.” She smiled and said “What?” We past each other and we both turned around. I said “Your shoulders will hate you. You have to walk with your arms down and swing them.” I told her to do that. She did and I told her to show me and she did as well. We both had a good laugh.

Remarks: I was just have fun and I injected some of my fun-ness into her as well. I should've told her to come back and kept going.

Approach #78:

I was walking along the law school. I see a super cute brunette walking towards me. Before we got close, she turned right into the atrium. I already decided to approach but I was too far away. I just kept going and said “Hey…. Hey you.” She still hasn't acknowledged me because I was behind her. Finally she turned around and I waved my hand slowly. She stopped and I went up to her. “Is this the law school?” I asked. “Yes” She replied. “Are you a lawyer?” I asked. She said no but she is going to be. She was still an undergrad and she was listening in on a lecture. I asked her what kind of lawyer she would be. “An entertainment lawyer.” She said. I asked her if she can be my lawyer but I need a criminal defense lawyer though. She said she can help me find one. We kept talking on for about 3-5 minutes about what she's planning to do and stuff. At one point, I was playing with her saying I was actually the person she was meeting. I think she actually believed me for a second. Then she pull out her phone to text. I told her “You know I'm going to get a text from you right?” She asked me if David put me up to this. I just agreed. At the end, I told her “Let me grab your phone.” But she was walking away on her phone. I just went “Let me umm… Let me umm…” Then I laughed and walked away.

Remarks: I thought this went very well aside from not getting the number. But hey at least I went for it. The vibe was flirty and the interaction was fun. Maybe I should've added in a few more light teases.

Approach #79:

I was walking down a sidewalk and I see a cute blonde walking towards me. I asked her if this was the student service building. She said “No, it's the one over there.” I asked if she was going there. She said no but she can walk with me. I asked her if she wanted to see something cool. I set my backpack on the ground and showed her the bouquet of flower. We talked for a bit and when we got to a traffic light, she stopped even though there was no cars. I told her “Come on, it's safe. You gotta take a risk once in a while. I got you.” She smiled and said “Then you should be on this side (next to the road).” I switched side with her. Then we introduced ourselves. When we got there, we talked for a few moments. Then I said “Hey, let me grab name and number. You know for insurance purpose and what not. In case I get lost.” She said “That's a cheesy way of asking for someone's number.” She said “Her boyfriend wouldn't like that though.” I told her “We only met for what 3 minutes, you are already telling me all of your problems.” She countered “Well, you did just show me your flowers.” I forgot what I said but it wasn't very good. I should have countered with “I bet your flower is prettier than mine.”

Remarks: I think she was at least a bit interested. She knows that we are flirting but she kept it going. I wanted to see her face if I delivered that line.

Approach #80:

I was at Walmart during lunch break. I walked around to see if there was any cute girls to approach. I did see a cute blonde in an aisle. I walked to the aisle parallel to it. When she headed towards my way, I just stopped and looked at the nearest thing like I was shopping for something. She walked to a different aisle. I see her a couple of more times but I didn't approach and I know she saw me a few times. Finally I was really trying to find the office section but couldn't find it. I saw her in an aisle and went to her and asked “Hey, do you know where the office section is? I've been walking around trying to find it.” She said no and she didn't really stop, just kept walking slowly and said it was her first time at that Walmart.

Remarks: I should've approached when I first saw her. She probably had some initial impression of me before I even approached because she saw me several times already. Hesitation killed it for me. And I could've followed up with why are you at this Walmart then. Later after I got my pen, I saw her again and I know she tried to avoid eye contact with me. haha.

Day Remarks: I thought I was very present minded. There weren't any negatives thoughts at all. Mostly just good thoughts mixed in with being present and having a good time. I think that's an awesome mood to have in. There were a couple of missed opportunities only because they were in front of me and too far away for me to catch up. I didn't want to run because I had flowers in my backpack. Aside from that, I had a great fucking day.

RE: My 100-Approach Journey And What I've Learned
11/13:

Approach #81:

I was at the grocery store picking up some fruits. After I got them I see a girl in the sauces aisle and she had a brace on her foot. I went up from behind her and as I past her I said “I hope you beat the shit out of the other girl.” She laughed and said she did. I said “That's the battle scar.” She said “That's funny” as I said it. I was about to leave but I turned sideways and asked “What are you shopping for?” She said “stuff to make a pot roast.” I asked her how to make a pot roast but she was distracted by texting on her phone. I called her out for it and she started to explain to me. Then we need the convo.

Remarks: I'm glad I was super relaxed where I can make funny/playful observational comments. I should've teased her a bit more and asked her to cook for me. There were people passing by us but I wasn't paying attention to them. Also I didn't hesitate at all, just went for it.

Day Remarks: I didn't do that many approaches because I had boxing today. I only had a few minutes to do it so I figured I go to the grocery store to kill tow birds with one stone. I had fun with everyone. When I was buying apples I asked these Korean ladies how to pick them. I messed with a black girl that working there. She asked if I needed help looking for something. I countered with “Should I be looking for something?” That cracked her up. We had a good convo about the best stuff to get at this grocery store. I joked around with the cashier but he was a dude. When I went to get a to-go at Panda Express, I flirted with the server but she wasn't receptive. And that's perfectly fine. I was even a bit late for work because of all of this.

11/14:

Approach #82:

I was at the gym working out at the squat rack doing my last set. A cute blonde girl went to use the leg machine next to me. After I finished I went to her and we both take out our earbuds, “Hey, you took my machine.” I said. She kept apologizing and I said I was just playing, she could use it. She said she didn't know whether it was empty or not because no one racks their weights around here. I said “Yeah, like that.” (pointing to me not racking). She laughs and agrees. Then I went to get some water.

Remarks: I should've played along with her and agreed with and say “Yeah, but you don't look like you're sorry.” Side note: I did need to use the leg machine. She got there a few seconds before me. Later, I see her with a dude that was working out near me. It looks like they came together. Maybe bf or husband.

Approach #83:

I was at a campus near my work and I had a bouquet of flowers with me. I parked my car and went to work. I see a cute blonde girl who looks unkempt walking towards me with her dog. As we are about to pass each other I said “He's got some long ass legs.” She agreed. I said “He looks like a racing dog like the ones that chase a rabbit.” She said “Yes, he's a greyhound.” I asked for the sex. Male. I asked what happened to his leg (it had bandages around it). She said it was an accident. I accused her whipping him. She laughs and said “It was a grilling accident.” I accused her further “Yeah, sure. You used a piece of charcoal and pushed it onto him.” She keeps laughing and was enjoying the teasing. Then I ran out of stuff to say and I turned around and left.

Remarks: I don't know why I left the way I did. She seemed to be very receptive to my flirting. I guess I'm the one that's holding myself back. I need to close the girls that are receptive to my teasing.

Approach #84:

I headed up a stairs and I see a cute brunette walking down. I asked “Hey, is this the cafeteria?” “Yes” she said while smiling. I asked her what's good there. She told me and I asked what she got. She said she got some soup. I teased her a bit for that. We got a really great vibe going asking each other questions while I tease her on some answers. I told her why I was on campus when she asked what my major was. I asked her to give me a tour of the campus. She was going to class in a bit but she was glad to. We walked and talked until some dude called out her name and joined us walking (fucking cockblocker). When we got to another cafeteria, she said she had to go to class. I shook her hand and she held on for a half second too long and with a lingering trail.

Remarks: Fucking aaa. Why didn't I ask for her number?! She was definitely interested. I should've chased after her when she left without that guy there. Maybe because I heard form her and the guy talking on the way there, she was asking the guy if 'he' was mad this morning when she left early. In my mind I thought it was her bf. But that's just me imagining shit. I should let her choose by giving me her number or reject me.

Approach #85:

I was walking perpendicular to this cute chick with sunglasses on. When she was kind of close to meet when we are about to cross paths, I said “Hey, you know where the main building is?” She tired to explain it to me. I said “Wow, that's the worse direction I've heard.” She tried to explain it to me again but better this time. She was walking away and I asked her where she was going. She said “To talk to her professor.” I replied “Oh, TA hours huh.” She agreed while walking away.

Remarks: I just realized it didn't even make sense what I said to her at the end. haha. She was cute but I don't think she was interested.

Approach #86:

I see a girl outside of a big new building studying while sitting on the ground. I asked her what that building was. She said it's the library. I asked her why she's not inside studying instead out in the cold. She said she studies better out here. I asked her what she was studying. “Speech” she said. We talked about the class and her major. Nothing really popped out. I told her good luck on her test.

Remarks: I thought it was just a friendly conversation. I didn't really tease or flirt. I think I asked too many questions and not even guess statements. I can sense she wasn't that interested in me so I left.

Approach #87:

Continue along the same path out of library, I see a cute girl walking with her hands cuddled up to her body. I said “You are shivering through your hands.” She stopped and smiled and said “Yeah, I'm so cold.” I asked her what building was in front of us. She told me the name but I wanted to know what it is. From there we must have talked for a good 10-15 minutes on the side walk with people passing through us. We talked about her major, her tomboyishness, her guy type, dating, etc. The more we talked the more I didn't even want her number. I felt like I was talking to a guy. I guess she was half columbian. Turns out she's 100% Armenian. She said she's independent girl about to graduate and just started a group on campus. We could talked more and I could've asked for her number but this time it was my choice to let her go.

Remarks: I noticed her body language was mostly into me except she only makes eye contact occasionally when she's talking. When I'm talking though she gives me more eye contact. THe teases and flirting I'm throwing in weren't reciprocated like I would expect from a normal girl. That's why I felt like I was talking to a guy.

Approach #88:

I was walking back to my car. I saw a cute girl walking in front of me and I tried to catch up but I'm a slow walker and couldn't catch up. Another girl crossed the street and was close to me walking behind. I noticed her too before. When she past me, I commented on her e-cig she had. I said “Is that a…” She finished my sentence “an e-cig.” I asked where she got it at. It turned out. She was a general manager for a store that makes them. She gave me her business card. She asked if I smoke. I hesitated and slowly said “not cigarettes.” She understood. I told her to give me her best sales pitch to convince me to buy one. She said “Well, if you don't use it often, it's not worth it to spend $100.” I told her “Reverse psychology. I like it.” She laughs. We talked for a bit more and she asked my name and she introduced herself and told me to visit her store.

Remarks: She was cute but I noticed her teeth are yellow. Probably from all the smoking. I didn't really transition out of the subject of e-cig so were just talking about an impersonal item. SHe was heading one way to the garage and I was headed another way.

Approach #89:

On the same way as I was about to get to the parking lot, I see a cute asian girl walking my way. We made eye contact and when she got closer I said “Watch out!” She quickly looked down and touched her stomach. I was laughing and said “I'm just playing. I'm fucking with you.” We past each other and stopped. I asked where she was going. She said class. I told her “I knew that, what class?” She said “Ethics.” “What, business ethics?” I asked. She said something and I said she had to go. I told her to “come here.” SHe did and walked to me. I took out my phone and looked at the time. “You got 5 minutes, you can run.” I said. She said “What?” while laughing. She tried to go again and I told her to “come here” again. She did. She asked if I go here. I said “No, I got a failed delivery attempt and I'll be back.” I told her to give me her number. She hesitated and asked for mine. I gave it to her and we introduced before this.

Remarks: I'm 99% sure he's not going to call or text. I think she just took my number to get rid of me so she can go to class. But I'm glad I did it. I should've gotten her number instead but would it even matter because she could always not respond to my text.

Day Remarks:

I had a great day. I was mostly relaxed but when I was walking around I kept thinking how a lot of students here know each other and how they will talk about me if I keep doing it since it was a small campus. There were a few moments where I was tense and I can feel my body increase in temperature. Also during my lunch break, I had a perfect opportunity to approach this cute asian chick at Walmart. I saw her at the produce section but I couldn't come up with anything then she's got some plastic storage basket in her cart but I still couldn't approach. I tried to wait for her outside while making a call but that would be too obvious especially after she saw me twice already and I didn't eve buy anything. I was pissed at myself on the way back, thinking of the possibilities. I'm thinking “Fuck, she's probably just moved here. That's why she's buying the storage thing. And how great it would be for her to meet her dream guy at Walmart.” Now I'll never see her again and will never find out. Hesitation killed me and regret is worse than rejection.

11/15:

Approach #90:

I was at the gym working out. I was doing some abs workout and I did my first set. I waited for this cute light-skinned black girl to finish and I went up to her. “Hey, can I ask you for a favor?” I asked. She said something. I think she thought I told her she did something wrong. But I continued. “I want you to hit me as hard as you can.” I said. She laughed. “I'm playing but I do want you to hit my abs when I'm doing it. You seem like the weakest person here.” I said. I told her about what my boxing trainer did to me when I was training to justify. She told me to let her finish her set first. I waited for a while but eventually she came over. She asked me what to do and I told her. When I finished, I told her she was predictable and didn't use her fist of fury. She said she didn't even know me while laughing. She left to do something else so I didn't have her to help me on my last set. Luckily, I see the blonde girl I approached before at the water fountain working out next to me. I think she saw what happened so I assumed it. I waited until she finished her set and I walked slowly up to her. This time, she took out her earbuds when I got close. I asked her to hit my abs like what the other girl did. She laughed and told me to let her finish. When she was done, the other girl came back. And I told her that, then she was like ok and was walking away. But the other girl wasn't making eye contact with me so I called her out and waved her back. She came and did the set with me. After I finished, I told her “You look like you were really enjoying it.” She replied smiling “It's always nice to hit someone.” I countered with “Especially if they are asking for it right.” She laughed and agreed.

Remarks: Well that was fun. I think everyone in the gym noticed this. I don't think the first girl was that into it probably thought it was random and weird. But the second girl (cuter) seemed into it. I think I got her intrigued. It's funny how unresponsive she was before and she's curious. I think also because she sees me talking to other people as well and not just girls. She came to stretching area near where I was working out later, probably to check me out further.

Approach #91:

I was walking to the main building. There's a big field of lawn where people sit and relax. There was a cute blonde girl with acne reading a book. I made eye contact with her. I haven't decided to approach her but when I was parallel to her I've decided to go in. I walked calmly to her. She didn't look at me until I stopped close to her. “Is this the chill spot?” I asked. She smiled and said “Yeah, it's nice here, really relaxing.” “What are you looking at? The church being renovated?” I asked. She said she was just staring into space. I asked what she was reading. She said the Bible. So I said “So you are reading the Bible while staring at the church.” She laughed and didn't even realize it. She told me she was religious and God is a big part of her life, her dad is in the ministry. We talked for a little bit and I tease her a bit in between. She seemed to be receptive but I didn't ask for her number. She was a freshmen too pledging for a sorority.

Remarks: I should've went for the number. Even though she didn't ask anything about me I still should go for it. I could've added somehow God put us here together in this time and at this place. haha.

Approach #92:

I was walking along and saw a girl carrying a plastic box and it seemed heavy for her. We were walking along the same path and she was a bit ahead of me. I said “That looks heavy.” She said “It's not that bad.” I asked her “What's in there?” She told me. I noticed UTeach on the side of the box and I asked her about it. We walked and talked for a bit. Then I stopped where we split our paths. She stopped too and continued to talk with me. Then I left.

Remarks: I didn't really find her my type. She's alright but the short hair just don't do it for me. I think she was interested at least a little. I think I need to test girls for compliance by seeing if they follow me and also get more investments from them.

Approach #93:

I was across an overpass near the engineering buildings. I see a cute asian girl walking towards me. I asked her what the building she just got out of was. She didn't even know. I teased her about it right away. We got into a great flirty/teasing vibe right away. We got into her major, where she's from, etc. After about 5 minutes or so, I told her to give her number. She squints her eyes and try to judge me. I was all open. She said she just knows my name. She tried to guess my age, after several tries and me nodding up and down my head to indicate increase or decrease she finally got it. Then I guessed hers. I asked her if she wanted to see something cool. She was curious. I went near the side of the crossover. I asked her “You're not going to scream are you?” She was excitedly scared. And she asked me if I was going to jump. I said “Yeah, I'm going to do a triple flip over.” She said she would run and there would be no witnesses. I showed her the flowers in my backpack. Then we kept talking for a bit. I asked “Are you half…” She said “Yes.” “I haven't even said anything yet.” I said. She said “I'm a halfsie.” It took me a while to guess, but I got it. She guessed mine on her second try. I asked her if she was cool. She said everyone's definition of cool is different. So I asked her “What was the funnest thing you did here?” She said she played video games. I teased her about it and we talked about video games for a bit. Then I told her I was going to give her my biz card. I turned around to grab it from my backpack and I told her not to look at my ass. When I gave it to her, she was surprised and excited. I joked around with her and I told her to give me her number so I can know it's her when she's calling me. She looked at me and I had my phone out. It seemed like she was testing me. Then she gave it to me. She told me to find out the building name. I told her I'll text her when I find out because I'm such a nice guy.

Remarks: I love these interactions. They are so much fun for me and for the girl. It must be for a good 10-15 minutes. She was loving every minute of it. I think one of the reason why is because I injected a range of emotions into her and so she was hooked. It felt like the substance of the conversation didn't even mattered. It was just pure fun energy and vibe. I texted her a few hours later with “it's [building-name]. don't forget it - name.” she texted an hour later with “hah. okay.” This is a first solid number I got.

Approach #94:

I was near a museum and I see a cute blonde girl walking. I stopped her in front of the museum and asked her what the building was. She told me it was a photography museum. I go further into it. Then I transitioned into stuff about her. We talked for a bit and then I ended the conversation with nothing to go on. She told me to go check it out.

Remarks: I should've asked for the number to gauge how interested she was. I don't remember what we talked about because it's been 3 days.

Approach #95:

Literally right after the previous approach, I see this really cute blonde girl walking near me. I stopped her with “Hey…. is this exhibit good?” (while pointing at the pamphlet) She told me about it and we talked for a good while. In the end I didn't get her number.

Remarks: Same thing I didn't try for the number again. I think it's because I'm not getting her to ask me any questions so I assume she's not interested and that's why I don't even bother going for it. I'm going to try for insta-date before number.


I haven't had the time to write up what happened on Saturday but it was a great day too. I'll probably do a voice recording on it because I'm lazy. Anyways, I've definitely improved myself drastically from where I was in the beginning. Here are some of my thoughts on what I've learned from this.

Excuse my high and drunk self talk...

Let me know what you guys think if you actually took it time to read it. haha. Any tips, comments and suggestions are definitely welcomed.

Heh. Yeah it's long as fuck.

What I learned from this is:

1. You're going to get good at this if you keep doing it consistently. You don't even need to follow any model, just approach. Your mind and body will auto correct your mistakes.

2. Do it consistently. Make it a habit. Kind of like weight lifting. Do you workout sporadically or make it a part of your schedule? Same thing. Set a time on your schedule to do. Soon you will find yourself approaching out of the habit when you are just sailing through your day.

3. Play with girls. Actually fuck with everyone. Most people's lives are boring. Fuck with them and inject some fun in their lives even if it's for a brief moment. Even they aren't cool with it, fuck them at least you had some fun. Remember, cute girls are people too.

4. Treat every day as an adventure. Talking to girls should be fun and exciting. Your goal is mind should be "how can I fuck with this girl and make her laugh?" My life was boring before this. Now I don't even have time to play video games, watch movies/tv shows, and I haven't fapped in 40+ days and don't plan to.

5. Live for yourself. Don't let other people's judgement of you get in your way. When you care, you think people actually give a shit about you when in fact they won't even remember you a day or two later. Everyone got their own problems, you won't make a blip on their radar.

Thanks man. It took about 4 weeks. I didn't get any bangs from those approaches just some numbers. I'm just getting a hang of it. Most of the numbers were flakes.

I wouldn't say I have zero approach anxiety, I still do sometimes. But it's definitely a lot better than when I first started. There were a lot of missed opportunities I wished I took a shot at. For me, I think if I decide "ok, fuck it I'm going for it." I actually do it. It's the decision to go for it that gets tousled around which means me waiver. So I'm continually striving to make that decision.

Thanks dude. I got the 100th and went over on Saturday. I was just lazy to write it out so I just did an audio recording of the day which is what I'm doing everyday now to record what I did instead of writing. Saves me a shit load of time since I've writing with pen/paper at work and then typing it out on my computer.

RE: My 100-Approach Journey And What I've Learned
Why are you using witty banter in the daytime? This should be used in nightgame, but comes off as too cocky and forceful during the day. Why not adhere to Roosh's DayBang model, start by rambling for 5 minutes, and drop high value hints about yourself, in an attempt to arouse curiosity with your targets. Then you can proceed to use GALNUC or some version of this to close. It sounds like you are acting like there is some lock to pick with your wit. Why not concentrate on your body language, and slow down your speech and just try to have pleasant conversations. Instead of treating them like hit and runs.
I like your courage, perseverance and ambition. Sounds like you have achieved a lot and you are having a good time.

Really enjoyed reading this. Congratulations man.

Great to see the subtle improvements you made along the way - it's given me the boost I need to get out and do the same thing.

I'm at a stage where I have no fear approaching people. I need to develop what comes next!

RE: My 100-Approach Journey And What I've Learned
I read the whole thing, Man. Inspiring and great work.

Your playful personality really was coming out or evolving or whatever and you had me laughing a few times. Definitely lol'd when you had the tranny looking for something she "dropped."

I love the lunch buddy routine - sounds like it works well and I'll have to try it. I also noticed you seemed to get best results when you came direct, asking about something and then saying, nah I just thought you were cute, etc. When you come too indirect, it sounds like women knew what was going on but were using it as an excuse to blow you off.

I set some game goals for the year and just started working on my approaches too and you inspired me to write them down, so I went and wrote down what I could remember from the last couple days.

Keep up the good work. You're getting better fast and will be slaying some of these girls like clockwork before you know it.

Much props to the effort!

EDIT: Killing me with this audio thing - stoned as fuck and ranting about snowflakes and shit. hahaha That was honestly painful; hope you're not out approaching all lit. I was taking you seriously until I listened to that. Huh My advice - stick with the write-ups or record sober.

RE: My 100-Approach Journey And What I've Learned
Nice work man. I didn't get through it all yet, read to about approach 35 or 36. Very interesting to see your development and confidence grow as you proceed. It's inspirational actually. I've been having trouble approaching girls during the day even though I tend to see higher quality women who give me looks and/or seem like that have no bitch shield up during the daytime. I've definitely got to do something similar myself.. I think it will improve not only my ability with women but my ability to interact with people in general. It seems like that happened with you (correct me if I'm wrong).


It must have taken you at least a couple hours to write that thing up though.. Dedicaton.


Edit: spelling

RE: My 100-Approach Journey And What I've Learned
@Scuba_Instructor - Thanks man. I know it's a long term commitment and sometimes I have bad days where I just want to quit but the habit kicks in and I keep at it. That's why it's important to develop it as a habit because there will be pot holes on this journey. I remember the quote something to this effect "Winners don't just do stuff when it's easy. They do it in spite of not wanting to do it."

@Beyond Borders - Props to you for reading through all of that. Excuse my high/drunken self lol. I gamed one time when I was high and it was just for self-amusement but I don't think it's a good idea either. I just read my journal again and I felt I've changed a lot. Now I feel more outcome dependent because I expect girls to want to do me right away. I definitely need to get rid of that mindset and have fun with it. I think I'm taking this a bit too seriously and my playfulness is waning. I still have AA but now I can talk to myself and get over it... sometimes. I think it's flaking and caring too much is getting to me. I gotta take Gio's advice and not care a single bit. Now I'm actually doing Krauser's method being more direct but not really saying they're cute, just quite nice and then comment on why I noticed them. It's hard to come up right on the spot but I'm still learning and it's getting a bit easier the more times I do it. I guess I just gotta trust the method and enjoy the process. Trail and error.

@RenewalMan - Thanks dude. It definitely gets easier the more you do it. It did improve my ability to interact with people. I think it's important to not want anything from them(guys or girls) aka outcome independent and just see what they're like. Some will like you and some won't but that's just life. I feel like I'm still in the beginning stage and have take a detour along the way. Now I'm trying to do more direct/indirect with more focus on direct because I want to let the girls know my intention so they can kiss me or reject me faster and I won't waste my time.

RE: My 100-Approach Journey And What I've Learned
Dude no hate at all, but, if you're approaching 100 girls and haven't gotten a bang, you should probably work on some other aspects of your game besides the approach.

No way you should be 0/100. It's a numbers game but you gotta be going at least like, 2/100

RE: My 100-Approach Journey And What I've Learned
Amazing breakdown, dude. I like it how honest you're being with yourself and have no doubt you're on a good path. The progress is visible. I was cringing at the first 10-15 approaches, but by the middle I was nodding in approval, and near the end I was glad that you've made it all the way. Keep that shit up!

Yes, not only should you not care a single bit, you should not give a fuck at all!!!

All these missed approaches and flakes will eventually lead to bangs.

I commend you for putting in the work!

In the last few months, I have banged an 18yo, a 19yo, a 20yo and a 21yo. I am 38.

You know how many 18, 19, 20, and 21 year olds I had to approach in order to develop the skills and confidence to do that???

At least 1000.

Keep doing what you're doing.

I agree.
